Good question. Tables were at one time used to align parts of web pages, organize text and display data. But now, CSS makes the whole alignment process easier by using containers and alignments. Tables are to hard to manage, and the code for a table tends to get messy and hard to manage. Plus, you don't have nearly as much control over tables as you do style sheets, and they don't look very modern either, just a big block in the middle of your web page.

Besides, the purpose of HTML has changed over the years. It's mostly used now as just a shell for CSS, Javascript and all other web languages.

Another good reason for using CSS is, if you have an external Style Sheet, you can easily change the styles for table in several pages (for example, a menu). When otherwise you would have to go through each individual page and change the table.
